Grandma Accidentally Texts A Teen About Thanksgiving Plans, And Her Reaction Is Brilliant
224Kviews
Usually, a text or call to the wrong number ends up with an apology, but not this time…
On Tuesday, 17-year-old Jamal Hinton received a group text from an unknown number confirming Thanksgiving details. The sender called herself grandma, so Hinton asked her to send a pic just to be sure. Turns out… Not his grandma! Hinton then responded with his own picture to let her know she’s texting the wrong grandson, and added: “Can I still get a plate tho?” She responded: “Of course you can, that’s what grandmas do … feed everyone.” And it turns out Hinton really might be attending the Thanksgiving dinner. Amanda, the real grandson’s girlfriend, told Buzzfeed that they’re confirming real plans with Hinton “right now”. What a spontaneous way to start a new friendship!
Hinton shared a screenshot of the hilarious conversation on Twitter, and it went viral since with over 382 likes and 181 retweets. Check out the full conversation below!
Here’s Justin, the real grandson, and his girlfriend Amanda, who says they’re confirming real plans with Hinton “right now”
We’re totally rooting for Hinton to attend! Are you?

That is what Thanksgiving is all about. The kindness from giving and sharing. This will be a modern day version of the original Thanksgiving. I'm glad he was still invited anyway.
Very impressed with what a lovely story this is, put a smile on my face reading it 😊😊👍👌
This is incredibly awesome, hope he shows!
The guy was super elegant I think he did.....
And the grandma earns herself a new grandson!
That's wonderful. I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving. I hope you attend Hinton. It will be cool to see how it goes. I think everyone will be following this story.
Great story. Hopefully they have a wonderful meal and a great new friendship.
"who is those" sad but true
You are the only one that found the one negative thing out of this beautiful story, I bet you tell everyone what they are getting for CHRISTmas.
I think it's an autocorrect mistake, "this" to "those"
WOW !!! he got a free meal and a family . Cute
brilliant story! Really put a smile on my face to start the day! <3
That is wonderful! It shows there are still good people! I hope he does go. Please let us know what happens!
So sweet, why can't we all invite people and make new friends?
Who said that you cannot? Just put somewhere paper with, lets say five, stripes with phone number saying 'If you want to enjoy Thanksgiving diner with fan of Vampire dairies who studied medicine on Princeton and works as nurse, take a strip and call me.' (All those info I fabricated, no identification with actual persons (living or deceased) was intended.) Maybe you will get some new friends.
Everything happens for a reason...we all cross each others path for reasons we may never know.....He should go!
This story is the embodiment of Thanksgiving. People getting together to spend time with each other, regardless of gender, race or social status - we need more of this in our world today. What a sweet lady for inviting him! I hope he is able to make it.
I hope he attends.
sweet

We're all rooting for Hinton to attend.

Loo lucky enough the grandma wasn't Italian otherwise you'd get super fat after that dinner

Hinton cleans up nice. This Thanksgiving will be the Anti-Trump Thanksgiving. What a lovely looking bunch of people.
Thanks giving shouldn't be about anti anything, it's focusing on what you're thankful for not what you're Opposed to
How did you even manage to bring politics into this?
